"The family Boré have inhabited Domaine du Fresche for the past six generations. Alain’s grandparents were mixed farmers, growing cereals and raising cattle, both for dairy and for meat, as well as making a little wine. But it was Alain’s father and two uncles who began to focus their efforts in viticulture, and Alain himself has been working at the domaine since 1989. Today he farms a total of 30 hectares of vines, all situated in the commune of La Pommeraye on the south bank of the Loire, and enjoying commanding views over the valley and the river itself. Since 2004, all of Alain’s wines have been certified as organic.
The range at Domaine du Fresche is diverse, with Alain making around a dozen wines each vintage. This is a reflection of both the grape varieties planted and the appellations that encompass the vineyards that surround La Pommeraye." - Paul M. Young Imports
